Why does ModDash Notifier only work with the `community-post` post type?
ModDash Notifier was built for SureDash-powered communities, which use the `community-post` custom post type for discussions. This focus ensures that notifications are only sent for the relevant comments moderators care about, rather than every comment on your WordPress site.
Can I use ModDash Notifier with regular WordPress comments or blog posts?
No. The plugin is designed to trigger only for comments on `community-post` items. It won’t activate for standard WordPress posts or other content types to avoid unnecessary notifications outside your SureDash workflow.
Do moderators need special permissions to receive and act on notifications?
Yes. Only WordPress users with the `moderate_comments` capability can be selected as notification recipients. This ensures only authorized moderators can approve, unapprove, mark as spam, or trash comments from email, Slack, or Discord links.
How fast will notifications be delivered after a comment is posted?
Notifications are queued and sent by WP-Cron approximately 15 seconds after a comment is submitted. This keeps comment submissions fast for visitors while ensuring moderators get near real-time alerts.
What happens if a moderator clicks an action link but isn’t logged in?
If you’re not logged in when clicking a moderation link, the plugin will redirect you to the login page and then return you to the requested action. It also regenerates a fresh, secure nonce so the action can complete successfully after login.
How do I connect ModDash Notifier to Slack or Discord for comment alerts?
Go to Settings → Discussion in your WordPress dashboard. Under the Slack and Discord sections, check Enable and paste your Incoming Webhook URL. Once saved, new pending comments on `community-post` items will appear in those channels with action buttons for quick moderation.
